Nimble Robotics is an AI robotics company building autonomous supply chain solutions to power fast, efficient, and economical commerce. The company is training robot AGI to power a generalist supply chain superhumanoid capable of performing thousands of tasks across the supply chain. Nimble has raised over $220M at a $1B+ valuation and formed a strategic alliance with FedEx to build a national network of autonomous warehouses.
As Senior Systems Integration Engineer, you will lead the technical realization of next-generation warehouse robotic solutions. This is a high-stakes role focused on the integration, validation, and performance of robots in fully automated warehouse environments, sitting at the intersection of mechanical engineering, software, AI, and operations.
Key responsibilities include:
- Deep involvement in the full system lifecycle, including system definition, testing, and deployment of next-generation hardware with focus on rapid deployment of robotic features
- Owning and executing the robot picking and packing performance roadmap, using metrics to identify mechanical or software bottlenecks and implementing aggressive optimizations to improve throughput
- Collaborating with robotics software and AI vision teams to define and roadmap cutting-edge features that maximize operational efficiency and improve robotic grasp-ability, robustness, and reliability
- Serving as primary technical lead for robotic warehouse programs and production deployment, ensuring robot fleet performance meets production SLA
- Conducting deep-dive technical investigations into performance regressions and leading hypothesis validation/testing for complex edge cases
You will be responsible for ensuring robots not only work but perform at superhuman levels, optimizing throughput, perfecting grasp performance, and leading high-profile demonstrations.
Qualifications:
- BS or MS in Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Robotics, or related technical field
- 5+ years of experience in robotics systems integration, hardware validation, or mechatronics
- Proven expertise in optimizing performance metrics and managing the interplay between robotic systems and control software
- Track record of leading end-to-end projects from initial validation in lab settings to successful deployment in high-volume production environments
- Exceptional analytical skills with ability to use data to drive mechanical and software engineering changes
- Ability to represent Nimble's technology to elite-level stakeholders and translate complex technical performance into clear strategic updates
